Tuesday at 11 o’clock the sugar 
factory whistle announced the 
slicing of the last sugai beet for 
this years run. It will take sev¬ 
eral days, however, to run the 
juices throng the mill and wind up 
things for this season. Saturday 
will likely see everthing cleaned 
up. 

The total number of beets sliced 
this year amounts to a little ovei 
37,600 tons, not as many as the 
first year hut a better quality, 
the beets not being frozen. This 
year the sugar content will run 
about 17.30 per cent, this being a 
higher sugar content than the 
Mont ana and Utah sugar factories. 

The factory officials and beet 
growers are very optimistic over 
the prospect s for a greater aereage 
next year. Tt is probable that 
8000 acres will he planted to beets 
next spring. 


Mr. and Mrs. Bert Grand and 
family left last week for Vancou¬ 
ver, where they will make their 
future home. Mr. Grand has for 
many years been a resident of 
llaymond and one of our foremost 
chicken raisers. He has won a 
a great number of prizes with his 
poultry flock. He will continue 
at this occupation in his new lo¬ 
cation. 

Last week saw the shipment of 
30 cars of wheat, 11 cars of live¬ 
stock and 11 cars of sugar from 
Raymond.

The Always Busy Tailors 

RAYMOND ALBERTA 


Tuesday afternoon the demon¬ 
stration farm of the Scoool oi Ag¬ 
riculture was the recipient of a 
fine shipment of purebred Perch- 
ion horses. These horses will add 
materially to the classes in judg¬ 
ing that the boys have to work 
with. They were shipped here 
from Edmonton. 

Mr. E. A. Barrangar was a 
week end visitor to Cluresholm. 
Mr. Barrangar reports that lie 
was very favorably impressed with 
the Claresholm country. 

The classes were very much 
thinned out the past week due to a 
large number having contracted 
sovere^colds. 

Mr. Angus MacDonald has been 
appointed by the Department of 
Agriculture to give the dairy 
course in the Raymond school. 
This course will commence after 
Christmas. 

The basketball seuson will soon 
open and it is expected that the 
Agriculture School will field a 
very strong team. Prospects are 
also good for a better hockey team 
than last year. 

Mr. Barrngar is expecting a lot 
of now supplies and is planning on 
putting on an extensive course in 
mechanics and gas engines. 

Mrs. Harriet L. Nyeof Edmon¬ 
ton has been engaged to give a 
course in millinery to t he students 
of the school. Mrs Nye is expect¬ 
ed the last week in February. 

Principal O. 8. Longman an¬ 
nounces that the prize and scholar¬ 
ship awards will be made during 
Christmas week.' The winners of 
the intra-constituency scholar 
ships will be announced at a near 
date. 


During the past week the citi¬ 
zens of Raymond have demon- 
h ated their loyality to t he worthy 
cause of gravel hauling. The 
movement lias been successful in 
every respect. Wednesday of last 
week Temple bill looked like an 
enlarged ant bill; carpenters 
working like fury to complete the 
now screen trap for loading the 
gravel; men by tnc dozens shovel¬ 
ling into the waiting wagons. 
Mayor Cope, clad in overalls, seem 
ed to walk away with all prizes 
when it came to using the shovel, 
in fact some delay was encounter¬ 
ed owing to the implement becom¬ 
ing too hot to handle. The busi¬ 
ness bouses were well represented 
that memorable fiist day. The 
loading chute was completed the 
next day and then what a shower 
of gravel. About forty teams 
have been on the job all week, 
each making their four trips a 
day. io look from Temple hill 
towards town lemimls one of the 
days of 4H when the pioneers trav¬ 
elled together, making up trains 
ot wagons, all mutually bound by 
chains of loyalty to each other and 
to a common community cause. 
They realized that they must stick 
together, build together, plant to¬ 
gether. reap together, a commun¬ 
ity spirit that made this country 
aim all other new countries. 

A reflection of this spirit was 
truly shown during this campaign 
and the result will be one of the 
finest roads in the south country. 

Mr. Lou Hanson volunteered the 
services of his steam engine if the 
town would furnish the csal. 
This was agreed to. and the old 
gravel in the street was torn up 
and made ready for the new coat. 

We believe that every man that 
helped in this undertaking feels 
Proud of the job that is being 
done and is amply repaid for 
his labor. 


In all probability a new church 
will be built in the second ward 
next spring. A careful survey of 
the members of the ward is being 
made by the bishopric for the pur¬ 
pose of ascertaining the feelings 
of the people regarding the under¬ 
taking. Nothing definite lias been 
announced us yet, but if the mem¬ 
bers of the second ward make up 
their minds it is a foregone con¬ 
clusion that they will have a new 
building. 

There has been a number of 
meetings held by the recreation 
committees of both wards as 
well as the stake. We are told 
that they were for the purpose of 
starting the mutual plays, so, if 
you are an actor, good or bad you 
might be called oil to lend a help- 
ing hand. 

The little daughter of R. T. 
Graham was fortunate in escap¬ 
ing serious injury when the door 
oi the car in which she was riding 
swung open just as the car turned 
the corner. She pitched out <ui 
her head and barely rolled clear of 
the buck wheels. She received 
a nasty bruise on the forehead. 

Miss Lillian Hicks returned 
home last week from an extended 
visit to Salt Lake City. 

i The regular Board of Trade 
luncheon will be held in the Club 
Cafe at 1:15 p. m. Wednesday Dec¬ 
ember 5th.

A Delicate Operation 


Will Spend Winter In North 


Kys I* Successfully Grafted On 
Person Who Regains Sight 

# 

Ono of the most delicate operations 
known to medical science proved at 
least partially successful when Dirt 
Ferguson, of New York City, once 
blind, looked dimly at the world 
through another man's eye. 

Ferguson’s one eye failed him sev¬ 
eral weeks ago and-doctors, in an ef¬ 
fort to restore his sight, decided to 
transplant the cornea from another 
eye. 

Charles Oreenblatt, whose eye was 
removed because of a tumor, offered 
it to the surgeons and the cornea, 
still alive, was removed and grafted 
to Ferguson’s member. 

The medical world awaited tho re¬ 
sult anxiously and there was great 
interest today when the bandages 
were removed. 

Ferguson was able to distinguish 
objects ten feet away. Surgeons said 
the development of sight and the 
permanent success of the operation 
would depend upon the ability of Fer¬ 
guson’s optic tissue to nourish the 
cells of the grafted cornea. 


Major Runvash To Carry On Investi¬ 
gations In Arctic Regions 

Tn the bleak and frozen reaches of 
Canada's Arctic regions an Intrepid 
and experienced explorer of the de- 
pa rtiflent of interior will labor during 
the long winter months, collecting 
valuable data and otherwise add to 
the knowledge of conditions among 
the wards of the Dominion, the Eski¬ 
mo. The investigator is Major L. T. 
Burwosh, of the Northwest Territor¬ 
ies and Yukon branch who early Ln 
June of this year left Ottawa on his 
distant mission. 

Following a long trip to Aklavik In 
the delta of the Mackenzie River the 
explorer conducted a preliminary 
survey of that country before pro¬ 
ceeding into the Arctic proper. 

According to wireless reports re¬ 
ceived from a government station in 
the North, Major Burwash now has 
established his winter base on Boothia 
peninsula, from whero he will carry 
out his investigations around King 
William Island, and on the mainland. 

A survey of a proposed tractor 
route between Cockburn and Wager 
Bays will also be made. This pro¬ 
ject is being investigated with a view 
to ascertaining tho possibilties of 
bringing in supplies for posts on the 
Arctic coast by way of the Hudson 
Bay and overland by tractor, rather 
than by the present long and hazard¬ 
ous route through the Behring Sea 
and the Northern coast of Alaska. 

In May, 1920, Major Burwash will 
soil northward on the government 
auxiliary schooner Ptarmigan to in¬ 
vestigate navigation conditions in tho 
Franklin Strait and Peel Sound. Ho 
plans to join the annual Canadian 
Arctic expedition In the summer of 
1929 with which he will return to civ¬ 
ilization.

I usincss keeps just as good as it is now, without even getting any better,” 
to take care of further maturities coming along from now till 1933. 

In other words, out of current revenues and without having to resort 
to the issue of refunding loans, Canada was able to pay off $53,000,00p of its 
public debt this year. And this does not represent the full amount of the 
debt reduction that has been effected this year, with a consequent lowering 
of tho interest burden. 

In the short period of six yc.ars the public debt has been reduced to an 
extent that means a lessening of the burden of interest annually in* an 
amount of almost $15,000,000. And if Mr. Robb’s expectations for the next 
live years are realized an equally large, or even larger, amount will be lopped 
oil by 1933. 

The most gratifying feature, however, is that this substantial reduction 
In debt and in annual interest charges has been achieved, not as a result of 
increased taxation, but concurrent with a general decrease in taxation, in- 
t hiding lowering of tariff schedules, a lighter tax on business profits, reduc¬ 
tions in the sales tax. smaller income taxes, reduced postage rates, smaller 
ttamp levies on cheques, and the abolition of stamp duties on receipts. In a 
word, the removal of restrictions on the business of the country has been 
helpful in the development of business, and, as a direct cnoseqnence, larger 
revenues to the Government. 

Another important factor has been the really phenomenal improvement 
ln the management and finances of the Canadian National Railways as a 
result of which the Dominion Treasury is no longer called upon to pay out 
huge sums to cover operating deficits and in interest to the public on account 
i f railway bonds and debentures. On the contrary, the C.N.R. now accumu¬ 
lates an ever increasing surplus to apply on its past obligations to the 
Government. 

The year now drawing to a close will, it is confidently expected, disclose 
s record year in the history of the Canadian National Railways, while Presi¬ 
dent Beatty is authority for the statement that 1928 will, in all probability, 
prove to be the banner year in the history of the Canadian Pacific. 

A perusal of the press of Canada, and particularly of all financial jour- 
nils in which are recorded the annual reports of the banks, trust, loan, 
mortgage and insurance companies, and all the large manufacturing and in¬ 
dustrial concerns of the Dominion, discloses the fact that one and all are 
tnjoying great prosperity, enormously increased business and substantial 
profits. 

No one circumstance can be credited with the whole responsibility for 
this magnificent showing, although it is safe to say that the great grain pro¬ 
duction of the West, coupled with the betterment in the life stock industry, 
the increase in dairying, and other branches of agricultural expanson, form 
tiie background, and is largely responsible for the general speeding up in 
the whole business of the country, and is occasioning the transfer of other 
lines of industry from the East to various centres in the West. 

The general betterment is the result, as Mr. Robb frankly rcognizes, of 
a beneficient Providence without whose aid all man’s efforts must come to 
naught. It is duo, also, to the courage, industry and enterprise of the Cana¬ 
dian people, and to some extent to the steady improvement in world 
economic conditions, inasmuch as Canada is dependent so largely upon its 
export trade. 

Present conditions are, therefore, good and sound, and future prospects 
are very bright. It remains for the people of Canaejgn to take full advantage 
cl the situation, not to rest on their oars, but to plan and work in order that 
our rosy expectations for the coming years may be fully realized. Every re¬ 
duction in the public debt, every dollar saved in interest charges, every item 
of taxation lowered or wiped out, means further relief to all people and a 
further incentive to still larger development and growth. It is, therefore, 
to everybody’s advantage and gain to work together in national co-opera¬ 
tion. 


British Market Is Large 


Canada Might Send Greater Supplier 
Of Farm Produce 

The Farmers’ Sun says: "Great 
Britain imported dressed poultry to 
tho valuo of £1,204,702 during Jan¬ 
uary to August, 1928. Towards that 
amount Canada contributed poultry 
to the value of £11,978. During the 
same period Great Britain imported 
eggs (in shell) to the value of £10,- 
999,385. Canada supplied £24,923 
worth. Canada’s contribution in 
each instance is infinitesimal and 
could be greatly extended. As re¬ 
gards butter the comparson Is even 
more striking, as for the period Jan¬ 
uary to August, 1928, the total im¬ 
ports were valued at £37,411,498, to¬ 
wards which (fanada sent butter val¬ 
ued at £13,059. Agricultural produce 
in larg» quantities is being supplied 
to Great Britain by foreign countries, 
including the United States of Amer¬ 
ica, which shipped dead poultry to 
the value of £911,929 during the eight 
months mentioned. 


WHEN YOUNG GIRLS 
GROW PALE AND THIN 


Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills Should 
Be Taken To Enrich 
the Blood 

When girls grow weak, pale and 
thin, parents should not neglect these 
symptoms; to do so means danger. 
The girl in her teens cannot develop 
into robust womanhood without an 
abundant supply of rich, red blood in 
her veins. It is the lack of this that 
is the great trouble with nine girls 
out of ten. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills 
have achieved world-wide fame for 
their remarkable blood-making pro¬ 
perties. In these pills there is vigor¬ 
ous health, with glowing cheeks and 
sparkling eyes for every weak, pale 
girl. The value of the pills in cases 
of this kind is shown by the state¬ 
ment of Mrs. Winnifred Rutty, Bar¬ 
ton street west, Hamilton, Ont., who 
says:—"About two years ago my 
eldest girl got into very bad health. 
I took her to a doctor who advised 
having her tonsils removed, saying 
this was the seat of the trouble. We 
bad them removed, but it did not help 
her, and she seemed to have absorbed 
so much poison from the trouble that 
she did not pick up at all. She could 
neither eat nor sleep, and what food 
she did take did not digest. Then she 
developed a cough that kept her 
awake at night, and went down in 
weight to 95 pounds. A neighbor 
said to me, ‘You have tried so marly 
things why not try Dr. Williams’ Pink 
Pills?’ I got some and before she 
finished the second box she began to 
show improvement. She continued 
the use of the pills for some time and 
is now in the pink of condition, able 
to work and play, and cat and sleep 
with all her old-time vigor. These 
statements can be verified by neigh¬ 
bors who watched her restored from 
ili health to perfect health.” 

If your medicine dealer does not 
keep these pills you can get them by 
mail at 50c a box from The Dr. Wil¬ 
liams’ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Chicken Hatcheries For Alberta 


Company plans To Establish Hatch¬ 
eries At Several Points In the 
Province 

A chicken hatchery on a large scale 
is to be established in Alberta, ac¬ 
cording to L. M. Gaetz, a member of 
the firm of Canadian Hatcheries. 
Limited, of Vahcouver, and a recent 
visitor to Edmonton. He stated that 
the plan of the company was to es¬ 
tablish, eventually, hatcheries at sev¬ 
eral points in the province, whero 
there is unlimited scope for baby 
chicks of high quality strain; also for 
eggs and poultry.

During the week of October 9th to 
15th inclusive, 85 homesteads were 
taken out at the Edmonton Land 
Office. This compares very favorably 
with the records throughout the sum¬ 
mer, and is very much in excess of 
the number filed upon during the 
same period of 3927, when 10 home¬ 
steads and one soldier’s grant were 
taken out. 


Harvesters Find Employment 

The placing of British harvesters 
in winter employment is making good 
progress in Southern Alberta. Secre¬

ber of deals, satisfactory to both 
farmer and helper, have been ar¬ 
ranged. 


West Coast Fisheries 
The pilchard reduction industry on

records an advance of 50 per cent, in 
production this year as compared 
with last, with an output of 10,000 
tons of meal, and 3,500,000 gallons of 
oil. Within the past three years the 
number of plants have increased from 
live to 22.

LABRADOR MAY BE SOLD 


Canada s voice at the Leaguo is, 
therefore, very much the voice not 
only of this continent, but, to express 
it in another way, of the new world.” 

In these words Premier W. . Mac¬ 
kenzie King, one of the Dominion's 
representatives at the recent sittings 
of the league of Nations in Geneva, 
spoke of the position of the Domin¬ 
ion of the League. The Prime Minis¬ 
ter, speaking before the Ottawa 
branch of the League, faced a distin¬ 
guished and non-partisan audience. 

Gathered to hear Premier King 
were: Hon. R. B. Bennett, Conserva 
tive leader, members of the Dominino 
cabinet, judges of the Supreme Court 
of Canada, Sir William CJnrk, British 
High Commissioner to Canada, and 
dignitaries of the church. 

"With the signing of the peace- 
pact of 1928 in Paris,” Premier King 
proceeded, "it seems to me that the 
whole work of the League of Nations 
has gained fresh emphasis, and that 
the position of tho League in interna¬ 
tional affairs assumes an importance 
even greater than that which it has 
heretofore had.” 

The Influence of the treaty for th«* 
renunciation of war, which the prime 
minister had signed on behalf of Can¬ 
ada had, Premier King stated, per¬ 
meated this year's proceedings of 
the League. 

The Prime Minister went on: 

"It is now as never before tho 
League’s business to see that those 
evils which make for war, as for 
example, competitive arming be- 


car- 

once universally 
grown. The combine is not suited to 
all prairie districts, nor to all farm¬ 
ing conditions even in districts where 
generally useful. This is recognized 
by all interested in prairie agricul¬ 
ture, but notwithstanding this the in¬ 
crease in the number used in harvest¬ 
ing the crop of 1928 as compared with 
those employed in 1927, has been very 
great. It is stated that in 1927 the 
number of combines In the prairies 
was less than 500, whereas in 1928, 
estimates place the total at ten time spread fringe of Canadian civilization 
that number. Exact figures cannot bo as the fact that Indian trappers are 
given because many of he machines using the plane to reach their trap 
were delivered only u few days be- j lines. Natives made wealthy from

Lamb Becoming Popular Meat 


Statistics Show Canadians Eating 
More Than a Year Ago 

Efforts of the Canadian Co-opcra- 
tivo Wool'Growers, the packers anu 
other organization^ to make lamb a 
more popular meat in Canada seem 
to be bearing fruit as the latest 
statistics from Ottawa show a steady 
increase in the consumption per 
capita. Three years ago Canadians 
were eating barely five pounds of 
lamb and mutton 


Sir William Coake, leader of tho 
fishermen’s protective union, sug¬ 
gests that Labrador, shown in the 
above map, may be sold by the New¬ 
foundland government to a United 
States syndicate. There is a strong 
agitation however, that Canada 
should buy Labrador, which was own¬ 
ed by the Dominion until ordered to 
Newfoundland by the privy council, 
rather than iet it go under foreign 
sovereignty. 


May Utilize Straw 


From Western Farms 


Problem Of Waste May Be Solved By 
French Invention 

For years experts of one kind oi 
another have wrestled with the idea 
of utilizing the millions of tons of 
straw that annually go to waste on 
prairie farms, and now there is more 
than a flickering ray of hope that the 
problem is about to be solved through 
the invention of a new machine by a ; 
French engineer. 

The Saskatchewan Government, 

9 I 

which has closely watched every 
plan brought forward in the past, is 
said to be interested in the new in¬ 
vention and may ship a ton or two of 
straw over to France to be tested in 
the new' machine. The French en¬ 
gineer's invention is a machine that 
presses straw' into a slab about two 
inches thick and binds it with steel 
wire. The slab can be used for par¬ 
titions or in the construction of all 
sorts of out-buildings. It is also said 
i to have possibilities as a fuel. 


every year with 
almost six pounds in 1926, and G.ll 
pounds in 1927, the latest year fot 
which figures arc available. When 
the 1928 statistics are announced un¬ 
doubtedly a further gain will be re¬ 
ported as efforts to increase consump¬ 
tion are continuing and tho quality 
of the lamb turned out, especially, is 
Improving. 

While the gain had been steady 
this country is still a long piece be¬ 
hind those places where lamb is really 
appreciated. In New Zealand for in¬ 
stance, t-hc consumption for every 
man, woman and child is placed a\ 
110 pounds, and there is no indication 
that the people there are beginning 
to look like sheep despite this record 
of almost a third of a pound per day. 

In Australia, too, they prize lamb 
and mutton, and serve it freely with 
the per capita consumption per year 
estimated at 72 pounds. Great Bri¬ 
tain is not content with less than 22 
pounds, while only in United States 
among the more important countries, 
is consumption comparable to ours 
where it is placed at 5.4 pounds. 


Was Veteran Of Great War 


German Red Cross Dog Dies Of Old 

Ago | 

Old age has claimed the last oi 
one set of veterans of the World 
War that were very young and tire¬ 
less throughout the struggle. This! 
Is no paradox, for these veterans | 
were dogs attached to the German 
Red Cross, and the longest-lived of 
them all is just dead at Hamburg. Ho 
had attained 20 years, and since ho 
was demobilized the dog had been 
surrounded by comfort in a good Ger¬ 
man home. 

Nearly everywhere in the white 
man’s w'orld, and in many parts ot 
Asia and Africa, there are formet 
I soldiers who remember with gratl- 
j tude what theso Red Cross dog* 
meant to them u’hen they' were ly¬ 
ing wounded in places where the hos¬ 
pital corps was unable to go. Some¬ 
times it was an exposed shell-hole, 
sometimes it was underbrush. Into 
these places went the Red Cross clogs 
of Germany, carrying first aid in 
their packs and ministering as best 
they could to afflicted man. The sight 
of these fine humanitarians, creeping 
along to avoid the danger in the air, 
or running gayly with the full know¬ 
ledge that no marksman would aim at 
them, has been properly described by 
many German veterans as the finest 
they ever saw in their lives.

After Twenty Years Toronto Again 
Ready To Receive Shipments 

Toronto has capped the greatest 
shipping season in its history, by be¬ 
coming once more a garin port, after 
a lapse of twenty years. 

With the completion of the two 
new grain elevators built on the wa¬ 
terfront, Toronto once moro stands 
ready to receive its share of the gol¬ 
den stream that annually flows east¬ 
ward from the prairies. 

“It is more than twenty years,” 
said Harbormaster J. M. Allen, “since 
Toronto last stored the harvested 
grain.” 

The two new elevators have a to¬ 
tal capacity of 2,750,000 bushels.

have in the bank.

Troubled With 
Painful Eruptions 
Cuticura Healed 


“I was troubled with itchy, sore 
eruptions on my head for over a 
year. They were very embarrassing 
in company as I wanted to be 
scratching all the time, and if I did 
scratch them a watery fluid came 
from them. They were very painful, 
and my hair came out in patches. 

"I tried many remedies during 
that time but without success. I 
read an advertisement for Cuticura 
Soap and Ointment so purchased 
some. The irritation stopped after 
one week’s treatment, and after us¬ 
ing three cake6 of Cuticura Soap 
and three boxes of Cuticura Oint¬

at the closing session of the 1928 an¬ 
nual meeting. The vote to hold the 
meeting In Regina wan practically 
unanimous. 

Two delegates from Regina, Mur- 
do Cameron, and J. L. Williamson, 
presented a request from the Hegin.i 
shareholders that the next annual 
gathering should he held there. ThL 
request was supported by a telegram 
of invitation from tbe mayor of Re¬ 
gina and the board of trade of that 
city. 

Next year will be the first occas¬ 
ion upon which the annual meeting 
of the U.G.O. has been held anywhere 
else but Winnipeg or Calgary, be¬ 
tween which two cities the meetings 
have alternated for many years. 

Cordial vot£!* of thanks to the di¬

isfaction were also adopted with re¬ 
gard to the successful results of the 
past year’s business and the present

Simple Flore Of Machinery Said To

London, Eng. - The Daily Mail 
gives prominent display to an article 
asserting that William Harrison, an 
elderly resident of St. Helen’s, Isle ol 
Wight, has invented a simple piece 
of machinery by which it is claimed 
a small quantity of electric powet 
can be converted at trifling cost into 
relatively unlimited supplies of cur¬ 
rent at high voltage. 

The device has been patented by 
Harrison and his sponsor, CouncUloi 
Thomas Wood, a manufacturer of St. 
Helen’s. The Mall says that the in¬

from the government which is testing

Natives In Mount Etna Region Meet¬

Giarre, Sicily. With N he lava flow 
from Mount Etna diminishinh hourly 
in intensity, natives of the stricken 
region arc gradually reeorganizing 
their economic life to meet the new 
conditions that nature has forced up¬ 
on them. , . 

There was some talk of tunnelling 
through the lava which has spread 
over the road as soon as the molten 
stream cooled and its flow subsided. 

This would restore the severed rail¬ 
way to normal service. One of the 
most radiant over the diminution oi

whose age is 100, and who is known 
as the "Granda of Nunziata.” This 
intrepid centenarian steadfastly re¬

Bed Cross Makes* Hplcmlld Contribu¬ 
tion By t aring For Hick and 
Needy 

Two centuries before tho Christian 
era, there lived In China nn Emperor 
of great magnificence, known as She- 
Hwang-TI. He will bo remembered 
for tho stupendous building erected 
during his reign, known ns The Great 
Wall. 

Two thousand years have passed 
away, and this massive masonry, 
with Its towers and gates extending 
for hundreds of miles along precipi¬ 
tous crags and ridge* -tho most stu¬ 
pendous erection of human hands - 
stands ns firm today as at the begin¬ 
ning and nil men gaze upon It and 
marvel. 

Old as The Great Wail is, there la 
something older still. It is the rocky 
trail that winds through It Into Mon¬ 
golia, where for twenty centuries be¬ 
fore the Wall was built, men and 
beasts wended their way. Camels 
and their dusty drivers, caravans 
and pack-ponies, donkey boys with 
their whips in tedious procession for 
hundreds of years followed the high 
road, that later was the winding read 
of the,Great Wall. 

Human life was cheap In those 
days, and when one fell, another took 
his place, nnd the great caravan 
moved slowly on. 

Walls arc not built for protective 
purposes round the cities of the world 
today. Ruins show there were Ro¬ 
mans who guarded their cities by 
stone walls, just os did the Greeks at 
Athens, the Jews at Jerusalem. 

Forwarned is forearmed, and in 
prevention of sickness by the walls 
of education In heAlth, the Red Cross 
makes its contribution In citizenship 
nnd service to the future as well as 
to the present. 

The work of the Society, built 
slowly yet effectively throughout tho 
past ten years of peace time, presents 
an unique feature to students of so¬ 
ciology along the lines of creating a 
new' health consciousness, a new mor¬ 
ale which bespeaks for The Unseen 
Wall of Canada, protects the crippled 
child, the sick settler in the wilder¬ 
ness, the well-meaning but ignorant 
mother in the homo nnd the growing 
child in the school, thus fulfilling the 
obligations In Article XXV. of tho 
Treaty of Paris—"Improvement of 
Health, Prevention of Sickness, Miti¬ 
gation of Suffering."

Alberl Halstead, ths American con 
tail-general, was the guest of honot 
at o recent Pilgrims* luncheon, held 
In London. Mr. Halstead w in vvel* 
( jxned by a hundred men prominent 
h IIritls!i life who extended greetings 
t< him « :i behalf of tho Pilgrims’ So¬ 
ciety. Speaking of tho relationship of 
Canuda and tho United States Mr 
Halstead said: 

* After my many years In Canada ? 
fo I justified In saying that if Canada 
is, a 3 has been so well said, Inter 
preter of Britain to tho United States 
nnd the United States to Britain, that 
its an American of many years resi¬ 
dence in Britain and Canada. 1 am lr. 
nn exceptional position to interpret 
Canada to you. It is very gratifying 
to refer to the continuing growth of 
the Dominion. I feel that the natural 
development of the Dominion into na 
tienhood has not lessoned, but if any 
thing increased, its devotion to thi 
British crown and its sympathy and 
interest and pride in Britain and thh 
Empire. 

"After the close of tho Great War. 
to vyhich Canada’s contribution was 
superb, but which left a heavy in 
debtedness and the necessity of read 
justmont, Canadians met their prob 
lems with courage and confidence and 
for several years their situation has 
been improving until now the govern- 
m< nt is paying off its debt from rev 
enue. Prosperity prevails, optimism is 
general, nnd though tnc-rc was a wave 
of speculation which seemed threat¬ 
ening. that danger seems past and i 
look forward with assurance to a con 
tinning development and growth of 
the Dominion, whose resources are 
marvellous and whose people, both 
British and French, as well as those 
(i other strains, are (died with cour 
ago and actuated by high sentiment? 
of duty and honor. 

* There is a continuing develop¬ 
ment of friendship between the tTr.it 
cd States and Canada nnd of mutual 
respect, contidence and regard. Both 
countries feel that our relations, one 
with the other, and the absence o f

Manitoba Barley 


Province Now Grown More Barley 
Than Wheat 

A barley research la!»oratory will 
be established at the Manitoba Agri¬ 
cultural College, and the Provincial 
Government will give the necessary 
financial assistance in providing every 
facility for research and the study of 
marketing problems, according to 
Premier Bracken. A committee, of 
which C. H. Burnell, president of the 
Manitoba Wheat Pool, is chairman, 
has been organized. It will be 
known us the Manitoba Barley Re¬ 
search Committee. Hon. Albert Pro- 
l'ont nine, Minister of Agriculture, w*ill 
represent the Provincial Government 
and Prof. H. C. Grant, of the Agricul¬ 
tural College, will be secretary of the 
committee. The purpose of the com¬ 
mittee is to carry on research and 
open up wider markets for Manito¬

barley than wheat. 


Clay Soil Requires 


Moisture Content 


Land l» Very Productse When I'lidei 
Proper Management 

"Properly managed clay soils arc i 
very productive and farmers who un¬ 
derstand their drainage requirements, j 
how and when to plow and cultivate, 
nnd what crops to grow*, usually pre¬ 
fer them to lighter soils.” This 
statement is made in the experiment¬ 
al farms bulletin. Crop Rotations and I 
Roil Management. 

In the fall plowing schedule, the 
clay lands should be among the first 
to receive consideration. Where' 
weeds are not troublesome, plowing, 
the clay soils late In the fall and 1 
leaving them in the rough plowed 1 
form allows frost and weathering te , 
exert their influence in breaking 
down the clods. 

A first essential is that the soil 1 
have a desirable moisture content 
when worked. "The bad effect of 
a single plowing when the soil is too 
wet is believed to lost for three or 
four years. The same is true to a 
somewhat less extent, of discing and 
cultivation." While experience Is the 
best teacher of when to plow, a fair¬ 
ly reliable rule to follow is to work 
tho land when tho soil is damp 
enough to be molded in tho hand, 
but dry enough that the ball will 
crumble easily when struck. If it is 
impossible to plow’ clay In the fall 
the spring plowing if it is at all dry 
should be worked with the harrow 
the same day as it is plowed. Gen¬ 
erally speaking, however, spring 
plowing increases the work and may 
result in a lumpy seed bed.

THE RECORDER, RAYMOND 


A rider Jogging down the trail 
reined in his home and shouted a 
cheery greeting In true Western style. 
Ho was a clean-limbed, alert young 
man, with a frank smile, and seemed 
elastic with the sword-keen health of 
outdoors. He swung easily from the 
saddled and introduced himself. 

"My name Is Wilkinson. I am the

When Douglas told him the object 
of their trip to Summit Lake the

He mounted his cayuse, waved his! 
hand in farewell, then galloped down 
the trail. 

The narrow path wound around the 
boles of enormous trees towering 
high above them, some of the fullest 
being nearly two hundred feet in 
height. Qillis appraised them with 
a critical eye. He was thinking of 
them as logs, calculated in terms of 
board feet, but over Donald their 
beauty and nobility cast a strange 
spell. How long had these monarchs 
enjoyed the repdse so soon to be 
broken by puny man? Probably some 
ot them were good-sized trees when 
Columbus discovered America. 

Tho solemnity of the forest 
was at times broken by the sharp 
"ka-a-a-a-a-h" of startled deer as 
lhey caught their scent, or the sud¬ 
den hum of wings as big blue-grouse 
shot up from their path. Once the 
horses pricked up their ears and 
snorted in fear as a bear crashed 
his way through the deep woods. 

As daylight abandoned the forest 
' and twilight made eerie shadows on 
the dusky trail, they swung to an 
open space on the banks of the roar¬ 
ing Cheakamus River, and made 
camp for the night. 

At daybreak they began the up¬

TARTAR 

You are faithful In your mouth

daily, but you still find deposits form¬ 
ing back of your lower teeth, to which 
tho tongue continually goes because 
of their roughness, and which you 
cannot remove by brushing, try as you 
will. 

How, what Is this? 

"Tartar," so called, is salivary cal¬ 
culus, and as it’s name implies, it 
enters tho mouth through the saliva. 

The fresh deposit is soft and can bo 
washed or brushed away when first it 
settles. This brushing must be done, 
however, within from live to twelve 
hours of Its appearance,

"How fire you, Doctor Faul?" 
greeted Douglas. "Is it a serious ac¬

"Tree fell on him. Broke both legs, 
and he is hurt internally won’t live," 
answered the doctor in a low voice.

"Tartar" is found generally on tho i

the reason for this being that these ga

Lastly—once calculus has formed, i 
its removal can be accomplished only c ° 
through the medium of special instru- t *T

towards keeping the deposits down to — 
the minimum. r

flock3 of ducks in gregarious raft-

their enormous packs showed signs 
of fatigue, and Gillis called frequent 
halts as the trail gradually 


grew 

steeper. 

"We are nearly there," cried Doug¬ 
las eagerly. 

A few minutes later they topped a 
heavlly-woodcd hill aifd swung in to 
a narrow path on their right. There 
was no need to guide the horses, as 
they knew that here were rest and 
food for them. 

There was a sudden quickening 
along the line. Donald’s horse broke 
into a run, with Andy’s close behind, 
the latter holding to the rear of his 
saddle and making a wry face. 

"I wish I knew 'ow to keep this 
’ere blinkin’ saddle from cornin’ up

querulously.

as they emerged from the woods and

view.

By mid-afternoon they came to tho 
vanguard of the army of workers, tho 
men who were clearing the right-of- 
way. At intervals they could hear the 
long-drawn cry of the choppers as 
the top of a giant tree shivered and 
then with a great rending crash fell 
to earth with a resounding roar. Here 
they came to the end of the new road, 
and with a feeling of relief they 
plunged into the cool shadow 
of the virgin woods. After the great 
clamour, the forest, through which 
the trail wandered deviously, seemed 
steeped in primal calm. The roar of 
the blasts no longer came in definite 
crashes, but was smothered by the 
distance to a muffled rumble.

The panorama spread before them 
was singularly wild and impressive. 
Below them stretched a lake of em¬ 
erald hue, rippled hero and there 
by occasional cat’s-paws, but for the 
most part, placid enough to reflect 
the shores with mirror-like clearness. 
To their right lay an open valley, 
through which ran a crystal clear 
mountain stream, its banks fringed 
with willow,'alder and blooming lab- 
radur tea. A rustic bridge of logs 
crossed the rushing stream to a clus¬ 
ter of well-built log cabins that were 
fenced in by a palisade of cedar 
posts. Inside the enclosure a patch 
of freshly ploughed soil stood out rich 
and dark against the carpet of green. 

Under the azure sky, dotted with 
fleecy clouds, a brilliantly white sky¬ 
line of ice-covered mountains, whose 
peaks flashed in the setting sun, cir¬
